For Those Of You In Colder Regions....

please forgive us down here in Mississippi, we get all giddy-headed over a little snow and sleet,
Some of us got (reportedly) 8 inches and here where I live in Middle MS, we got about 2.  Schools closed, doctors' offices closed, pharmacies closed, government businesses closed, stores closed, it was kinda surreal as barely any traffic was moving this morning when I went to work.
There were (reportedly) 30 traffic accidents Sunday night.
Wal Mart, and every other store was out of bread, milk and eggs.
David was in hunting paradise.
Thanks to a friend of mine who grew up in Michigan I can drive (sorta) on ice and snow.  I remember the first year she moved down here in '76 how she hooted at and then stared in disbelief at all of us driving like idiots.
She drove this:

Well this isn't the actual Monte Carlo but it was very similar.  And honestly people would gawk when they saw us cruising by in the snow and ice.  She always drove with the sun roof open and that winter of  76 she almost killed me.....I stayed sick with a cold.  She never had chains on her tires but she could put that sucker in the wind/sleet/snow anywhere she wanted to go.
She taught me how to stop, how to turn my wheels and how to steer......
Anyway I am so enjoying the snow.
And I will leave you with this from Sunday night:

Avery:  "Nonna, when it snows is God happy?"
Me: "Yes."
